The new SPM 5 series is composed of six fast-recovery MOSFETs, and three
half-bridge HVICs for gate driving. The devices provide low
electromagnetic interference (EMI) characteristics with optimized
switching speed.

Precision driving of the low RDS(ON) MOSFETs minimizes EMI
and maximizes switching efficiency. The integrated under-voltage lockout
and thermal sensing unit provide local protection to the SPM device
while allowing the attached controller IC to monitor the module’s
thermal performance in real time.

Part of the Motion SPM 5 SuperFET® series, the FSB50x60SF(S)
devices are based on 600V Super Junction MOSFET technology, while
the FSB50xxxA(x) are based on 250V/500V FRFET®
technology. The SPM 5 SuperFET series is the industry’s first 600V super
junction MOSFET module solution for small home appliances and small
industrial drives. Both technologies provide better ruggedness and
larger safe operation area (SOA) than that of an IGBT-based power module
or one-chip solution.

This new SPM series features three bootstrap diodes in a tiny 29mm x
12mm package rated for 250V, 500V and 600V operation. The compact design
and simple electrical interface make it ideal for applications requiring
a small footprint, rapid time-to-market and design scalability, such as
built-in motor applications, and any other application where the
assembly space is limited. Devices in the series provide designers the
energy efficiency, compactness, and low EMI today’s applications require.

Also available to designers is Fairchild’s
Motion
Control Design Tool, an online resource that calculates power losses
and temperature fluctuations to optimize heat sink selection and
ultimately system costs. For more information, or to order samples,
